Fiscal Cliff

Recommended Posts

:helloooo:

 

As a forex trader, should I be worried about the recent fiscal cliff? What effects will it have on the dollar? Who can accurately predict the fluctuations that will take place in the currency? Should we continue to hold our money in USD or should we look for alternative currencies like the Chinese Yuan or the Sterling Pound? :confused:

The good news is that you don't have to worry about the fiscal cliff for now, but I know exactly what your talking about. It is how will the USD do in the long term? In the short-term, the greenback has been on the ascent and in the past week it hit its two-and-a-half-year high. But there are several reasons why this is very temporary. :( And this is coming from one of the biggest fans of the US out there.

The fiscal cliff that you brought up was not handled well and it will rear its ugly head in the future forcing the US into another recession. Then we have the QE3 that is going on that will further soften the USD along with the discourse about lifting the debt ceiling that is very concerning. This brings me to the worst-case scenario of more rating agencies downgrading the U.S. to a AA rating.

Hi ,

 

The fiscal cliff was resolved by not raising taxes , not excessively cutting spending, What his all means in short is that money printing will continue in full swing . The US debt will continue to grow . In February US will again hit the debt ceiling. There will again be the usual congress drama on whether to increase the debt ceiling. Again the discussions will go on till the last minute. Stock market will give a clear signal by starting a slide, that if debt ceiling is not raised it will crash . Finally the debt ceiling will be raised and markets will rally to all time highs .

 

All this is not good for the dollar , dollar will slide, commodities, oil,stocks will all rise.

 

Regards,

Ninad.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!
